VICE PRESIDENT ENEWS MESSAGES

Imagine preparing every day for an important presentation—only you never know when you will be asked to deliver it.
 
For the University Health Center, that presentation is the accreditation review process through the prestigious Joint Commission. Every 18 to 39 months, Joint Commission surveyors conduct an unannounced on-site visit to review all aspects of the Health Center’s services, facilities and operations. For the second consecutive review, the University Health Center received a flawless report of findings.
 
When you consider that only 17 out of nearly 1,800 college health centers nationwide (and no others in Georgia) choose to go through the challenging Joint Commission accrediting process, much less receive flawless findings twice in a row, we have much to appreciate.
 
What this accomplishment means most is that UGA students, faculty and staff served by the Health Center receive the highest quality health care every single day. That is a standard of excellence to which we can all aspire. Congratulations to the Health Center and all of our other amazing departments who continue to do stellar work with our students daily.
